General Motors, Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler parent Stellantis said on Tuesday they are making masking optional at all U.S. facilities.
In mid-May, the Detroit 3 and the UAW — which have a COVID-19 joint task force — reinstated a requirement that employees wear masks in southeastern Michigan where there are high levels of COVID-19.
The task force said on Tuesday if a facility is in a high-risk county as identified by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) it “strongly recommends masking” but they will not be required.
